This paper reports on the genus Cobbionema Filipjev, 1922 in Sweden with the description of four species and a revision of the genus. Cobbionema acrocerca Filipjev, 1922 is relatively small in size, with a tail that has a conical proximal and a digitate distal section. Cobbionema cylindrolaimoides Schuurmans Stekhoven, 1950 is similar to C. acrocerca in most characters except having a larger body size and heavily cuticularized mandibles. Cobbionema brevispicula sp. nov. is characterised by short spicules and a conoid tail. Cobbionema acuminata sp. nov. is characterised by a long two-part spicule, a conical tail and three (one mid dorsal and two ventrosublateral) sharply pointed tines in the anterior chamber of the stoma that are located more anterior than in all the other species.

The examined nematodes are predominantly parasites of fishes. Their analyses provided well-supported trees allowing the study of phylogenetic relationships among some spirurine nematodes. The present results support the placement of Cucullanidae at the base of the suborder Spirurina and, based on the position of the genus Philonema (subfamily Philoneminae) forming a sister group to Skrjabillanidae (thus Philoneminae should be elevated to Philonemidae), the paraphyly of the Philometridae. Comparison of a large number of sequences of representatives of the latter family supports the paraphyly of the genera Philometra, Philometroides and Dentiphilometra. The validity of the newly included genera Afrophilometra and Carangi- nema is not supported. These results indicate geographical isolation has not been the cause of speciation in this parasite group and no coevolution with fish hosts is apparent. On the contrary, the group of South-American species ofAlinema , Nilonema and Rumai is placed in an independent branch, thus markedly separated from other family members.

  • (Stsm) Scientific Report
    SHORT TERM SCIENTIFIC MISSION (STSM) SCIENTIFIC REPORT This report is submitted for approval by the STSM applicant to the STSM coordinator Action number: CA15219-45333 STSM title: Free-living marine nematodes from the eastern Mediterranean deep sea - connecting COI and 18S rRNA barcodes to structure and function STSM start and end date: 06/02/2020 to 18/3/2020 (short than the planned two months due to the Co-Vid 19 virus pandemic) Grantee name: Zoya Garbuzov PURPOSE OF THE STSM: My Ph.D. thesis is devoted to the population ecology of free-living nematodes inhabiting deep-sea soft substrates of the Mediterranean Levantine Basin. The success of the study largely depends on my ability to accurately identify collected nematodes at the species level, essential for appropriate environmental analysis. Morphological identification of nematodes at the species level is fraught with difficulties, mainly because of their relatively simple body shape and the absence of distinctive morphological characters. Therefore, a combination of morphological identification to genus level and the use of molecular markers to reach species identification is assumed to provide a better distinction of species in this difficult to identify group. My STSM host, Dr. Nikolaos Lampadariou, is an experienced taxonomist and nematode ecologist. In addition, I will have access to the molecular laboratory of Dr. Panagiotis Kasapidis. Both researchers are based at the Hellenic Center for Marine Research (HCMR) in Crete and this STSM is aimed at combining morphological taxonomy, under the supervision of Dr. Lampadariou, with my recently acquired experience in nematode molecular taxonomy for relating molecular identifiers to nematode morphology.

  • Nematoda, Chromadorida, Selachinematidae) from the West Coast of Sweden and an Updated Phylogeny of Chromadoria
    Marine Biodiversity (2020) 50:113 https://doi.org/10.1007/s12526-020-01129-w ORIGINAL PAPER Description of a new marine predatory nematode Latronema dyngi sp. nov. (Nematoda, Chromadorida, Selachinematidae) from the west coast of Sweden and an updated phylogeny of Chromadoria Mohammed Ahmed1 & Oleksandr Holovachov1 Received: 3 July 2020 /Revised: 8 October 2020 /Accepted: 15 October 2020 # The Author(s) 2020 Abstract A new nematode species, Latronema dyngi sp. nov., is described from Skagerrak off the west coast of Sweden with the type locality near Dyngö island. Latronema dyngi sp. nov. is characterized by multispiral amphideal fovea with circular outline, 0.2– 0.3 corresponding body diameters wide in males and 0.1–0.2 corresponding body diameters wide in females, 12 cuticular longitudinal ridges and 18–27 precloacal supplements in males. Latronema dyngi sp. nov. most closely resembles L. orcinum in terms of body length; demanian ratios a, b, c and c′; number of amphid turns in males; and the ratio of spicule length to cloacal body diameter. The two species can be differentiated by the number longitudinal ridges on the cuticle (12 for Latronema dyngi sp. nov. vs 20–22 for L. orcinum) and spicule length (65–78 μmforL. dyngi vs 60 for L. orcinum) and shape (weakly arcuate for L. dyngi sp. nov. vs strongly arcuate for L. orcinum). We also performed a maximum likelihood phylogenetic analysis on over 250 nematodes of the subclass Chromadoria based on their nearly full-length 18S rDNA sequences. In agreement with previous studies, our analysis supported Selachinematidae as a monophyletic group and placed Richtersia Steiner, 1916 within Desmodoridae Filipjev, 1922 or just outside of the main Desmodorida clade with the latter placement not well supported.

  • Taxonomy Assignment Approach Determines the Efficiency of Identification of Metabarcodes in Marine Nematodes
    Taxonomy assignment approach determines the efficiency of identification of metabarcodes in marine nematodes Oleksandr Holovachov1, Quiterie Haenel2, Sarah J. Bourlat3 and Ulf Jondelius1 1Department of Zoology, Swedish Museum of Natural History, Stockholm, Sweden 2Zoological Institute, University of Basel, Switzerland 3Department of Marine Sciences, University of Gothenburg, Sweden Abstract: Precision and reliability of barcode-based biodiversity assessment can be affected at several steps during acquisition and analysis of the data. Identification of barcodes is one of the crucial steps in the process and can be accomplished using several different approaches, namely, alignment-based, probabilistic, tree-based and phylogeny-based. Number of identified sequences in the reference databases affects the precision of identification. This paper compares the identification of marine nematode barcodes using alignment-based, tree-based and phylogeny-based approaches. Because the nematode reference dataset is limited in its taxonomic scope, barcodes can only be assigned to higher taxonomic categories, families. Phylogeny-based approach using Evolutionary Placement Algorithm provided the largest number of positively assigned metabarcodes and was least affected by erroneous sequences and limitations of reference data, comparing to alignment- based and tree-based approaches. Key words: biodiversity, identification, barcode, nematodes, meiobenthos. 1 1. Introduction Metabarcoding studies based on high throughput sequencing of amplicons from marine samples have reshaped our understanding of the biodiversity of marine microscopic eukaryotes, revealing a much higher diversity than previously known [1]. Early metabarcoding of the slightly larger sediment-dwelling meiofauna have mainly focused on scoring relative diversity of taxonomic groups [1-3]. The next step in metabarcoding: identification of species, is limited by the available reference database, which is sparse for most marine taxa, and by the matching algorithms.

  • And Unexpected Placement of the Genus Molgolaimus Ditlevsen, 1921
    Marine Biodiversity (2019) 49:2267–2280 https://doi.org/10.1007/s12526-019-00961-z ORIGINAL PAPER New nematode species from the continental slope of New Zealand (Chromadorea, Microlaimida, and Chromadorida), and unexpected placement of the genus Molgolaimus Ditlevsen, 1921 Daniel Leduc1 & Sujing Fu2 & Zeng Qi Zhao3 Received: 20 February 2019 /Revised: 3 April 2019 /Accepted: 16 April 2019 /Published online: 8 June 2019 # Senckenberg Gesellschaft für Naturforschung 2019 Abstract The current nematode classification comprises three primarily marine basal Chromadorean orders: the Microlaimida Leduc et al., 2018; Desmodorida De Coninck, 1965; and Chromadorida Chitwood, 1933. The phylogenetic placement of several taxa within these orders, however, is unclear due to the paucity of taxonomically informative morphological characters for high-level classification and is yet to be tested by molecular phylogenetic analyses due to the absence of molecular sequences. Here, we describe Molgolaimus kaikouraensis sp.nov.andAponema pseudotorosum sp. nov. from the continental slope of New Zealand and investigate phylogenetic relationships of these species and that of the rare desmodorid genera Onepunema and Pseudonchus, using SSU phylogenetic analyses for the first time. Whilst our analyses provided support for the current classification of Aponema within the family Microlaimidae and of Pseudonchus within the Desmodorida, we could not confirm relationships of Onepunema. We found no support for the placement of Molgolaimus with either the Desmodorida or Microlaimidae/ Microlaimida as in the current and previous classifications. Instead, Molgolaimus was classified with the Chromadorida with moderate and strong support in maximum likelihood and Bayesian analyses, respectively. Congruence analysis suggests that in some cases at least, the structure of the female reproductive system is a more taxonomically informative trait for marine nematode classification than the male reproductive system or cuticle.
